I would like to know that as well!
Not sure what you mean. You mean long pressing the home button and getting the Google "circle"? If so, not sure why that is an issue for you. I didn't even know about it until I read the post as I never long press the home button.
I found it:
Settings > Interface > Navigation bar > Navigation bar ring targets.
Here you can set how many apps you want on the ring and also which app. (could no way to disable the rings completely, but for me it becomes useful now, that I can set some apps myself.

That's... a custom ROM feature.
I'm so sorry, totally forgot that you could be on stock Rom. Nevermind then...
CM10 is Ur best option for getting this done. Either that or use Holo Locker.
I'm gonna get u the APK of an older version Cuz the current one has Google now.

Hit the thanks button. This version has no Google Now Option at the lock screen.
Just Camera and unlock.
This app will disable security and allow u to use volume rocker to wake.
Also u need lock screen in settings.
I think this is Ur only option to disable now with a good locker ( best one IMO)

Nothing changed, just my lockscreen is now custom and I don't have PIN security. Still holding Home button Google now option pop's up.
Which Roms allow to disable GoogleNow? Only CM10 nightlies?

But if you only disable the search app, it will disappear only. but still you can not use the space at desktop, as it will be used for hidden app.I would suggest to use non stock launchers(nova/apex), where all apps could be easily removed etc.

Now that I have installed Google Now, I notice when I double tap the home button S Voice doesn't open up anymore. I checked the setting and the button is ticked to set S Voice to open on double tap of the home key. Any suggestions? I don't know if my installing Google Now had anything to do with it, but I noticed it stopped working round about the time I installed now.Please help.

You can program that if you use Nova Launcher or depending on your rom, you can program it from settings.

I know I should be doing more research on my own.
but I've search on google and also XDA. most of them "enabling all apps for shortcut (multi-view)" i have to flash my note 2. Does anyone know if there is a way to add additional APPS without flashing?
Based on my search, I am sure the answer is pretty much a No.

Choose your poison
I previously had a GNEX. Loved the swipe up from home shortcut for Google Now. On my Note 2 the only way I see to launch Google Now is by holding the menu button. This is ok, but it brings up the keyboard and recent search entries causing clutter (and yiu have to press the back button to make the keyboard go away). And the prior search results stay on the screen.
Is there a faster/better way to quickly access Google Now?

I use Nova launcher and can swipe up for GOOGLE
Gesendet von meinem GT-N7100 mit Tapatalk 2
Use Swipepad: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...1vYmkuY29uZHVjdGlvbi5zd2lwZXBhZC5hbmRyb2lkIl0.
(which is a must have app for any android device)
Then put google now in one of the slots. All you have to do then is swipe up from your chosen hotspot to it and you're set. :good:
You can do it by a long press on the menu touch button, or dragging the google shortcut from the lockscreen.

In my OP, I mention the menu way. It's annoying because it brings up the keyboard and recent searches. You have to hit back to get rid of the KB and the recent searches stay there. It's not ideal.
I downloaded swypepad, but in order to use more zones, you have to pay. Lame.
Oh well.

So your's doesn't do this when either holding the menu button or touching "google" on the search bar (widget)?
What?
If you use Nova, you can bind Search Text to "long press menu". That brings me the Google+ screen...

You're right, it does pull up the keyboard, but if u start scrolling through the cards it all disappears.

Long press on my home button brings up my recent apps and three icons at the bottom.
Pie chart, Google and dustbin.
Press Google for Google now. No keyboard or recent searches appear.
However, if i touch the word Google on the search widget then Google now comes straight up but with the keyboard

Don't know if you are still having trouble.... But apparently it's a triple dot menu button On-screen if the app supports it. Found it off of HTC Bolt forum :/
Just updated to nougat today. Home button thing is driving me crazy. It's hard to reach all the way to the top of your phone to get to the menu :/
